If the ACC is so lame in football, why is an SEC power trying to steal one of the coaches (again)?

Rebuffed by Carolina's Butch Davis and Clemson's Tommy Bowden, Arkansas is now looking to land Wake Forest’s Jim Grobe as the new Razorback coach.

A University of Arkansas private fundraising arm approved a salary supplement Wednesday for Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe, a strong indication that Grobe will replace Houston Nutt as the Razorbacks' coach. There was no word from the university, however, on whether Grobe would replace Nutt, who "quit " Nov. 26 and was hired almost immediately at Ole Miss.

(Arkansas's Chancellor John White suffered only minor burns when his pants caught on fire after expressing his support of Nutt just one day before Nutt "quit.")

The Morning News of Northwest Arkansas reported on its Web site Wednesday night that Grobe would likely be introduced Thursday as Arkansas' coach.

WHERE IN THE WORLD...?

The way it is...

The way it was...

TAH DAMN GOOD CAUSE OF THE MONTH

NORTHERN HAITI HOPE FOUNDATION: After our recent trip to Haiti, we vowed to do more to help. Clean water is a critical issue for all Haitians. It's particularly problematic for those in rural areas. For $2,000 to $5,000 we can build a new well in a rural village as part of a program facilitated by the St. Barthelemy School and the Warrenton, VA Rotary. Send your donation to Wells of Health and Hope, c/o GPetty-VTA, 38 Garrett Street, Warrenton, VA 20186 and keep your eye on T.A.H. for progress reports. Thanks! CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR MORE INFO.
